Awhile ago I went to the makeup counter in Macy's looking for a new foundation with my friend Brandy. I wasn't really looking for any brand in particular, just sort of browsing through all of them. Of course the girl from the Benefit counter saw me hovering over the makeup, so she came over and started asking me what I was looking for, and even though I usually don't like salespeople bugging me until I know what I want, I obliged and told her I was looking for foundation. Well somehow she convinced me to let her test out a foundation on me, which usually I don't allow (I'm kinda self conscious having strangers in my face). When she was done she gave me a mirror to check it out-wow! That's all I had to say! The "foundation" made my skin look smooth and silky, and felt like I had nothing on! She had also used their "that gal" primer, which gave my skin a glowing look, but sadly I could only buy one at a time, boo hoo :(
Anyways, I love this stuff, it's great for when I don't have time to apply tons of face makeup, or when I just don't feel like it :) It's called "foundation faker" because it's a cream to powder formula that is lighter than regular foundation. It's pretty sheer, so don't expect too much coverage, if that's what you're looking for. It just gives a nice silky finish and allows your skin to show through nicely. It comes in two colors, Translucent and Deep, Translucent will match most skintones, but if your skin is medium or deeper colored, then go with Deep. For the best look, use with "that gal" primer, they really complement each other.
As you can see, I'm starting to run out-time to buy some more! :) It also comes with a sponge that's hidden in a bottom compartment. Isn't the packaging adorable?

how long does this last you? b/c i have the minis of some kind of gorgeous, that gal, high beam, and posie tint from the benefits $10 bestseller thing from sephora
i have that kit too! um, i haven't actually used my some kind a gorgeous in awhile, and my skin isn't doing so hot these days so it needs more coverage...the benefit is a little sheer, so i don't know how long it lasts, i think it just depends on if you use primer on your face and set it with powder and stuff....i wouldn't expect it to last all day, that's what i am trying tp get at :)
i love some kind of gorgeous! i used to use it but ran out and never got it again :/
